Unto the Flicker of Hope
it is not over until it begins
you hold no hope of life afterward
and so you betray your final hope
of silence beneath the veil of night...
beneath the veil of moonlight,
you hold the key to perpetual life
only to betray your final hope
of peaceful rest afterward
and in the light, the shadows crawl
despite your defense
unto darkness you fall
if ever a hope is revealed
our fate is forever sealed
beneath the veil of treachery
do not long for the past
you hold not the key to make it last
and now there is no contrast
to the comforting shadow of night
If only the stars revealed their secrets to me
I would hold all hope of life afterward
but silence only folds in upon itself
reaching for a last glimpse of eternal light...
a last glimpse of eternal firelight,
you hold the key to power fulfilled
only with it to betray those closest to heart
ripping from them their lives afterward
and in the light, the shadows crawl
despite your defense
unto darkness you fall
if ever a hope is revealed
our fate is forever sealed
beneath the veil of treachery
shall I long for the past?
If only I held the key to change the last
moment of sweet contrast
before I traded their kinship for night
